Description: Vanilla cream soda nose with a slice of fresh cut pineapple. Full body, tropical fruit, spice and pleasing vanilla oak note linger in the finish. Sweet flavor on the palate is from sur-lie aging the wine on the primary yeast lees for 7months. A versatile style of wine that can be served chilled with fine cuisine or a glass with friends. Certified Green by Lodi Rules Sustainable Winegrowers.
My review: I was super excited to try this because it has been aged in an oak barrel, which Gary V had been talking about. But I wasn't really able to taste or smell it. My pallet is not refined enough or else I just do not know what it tastes like. But it smelled so much like pineapple, which I appreciated. And it was more spicy than I expected on the finish. Went from fruity and sweet to spicy.
